From the man page:
Quote:
Aliases are not expanded when the shell is not interactive, unless the
expand_aliases shell option is set using shopt (see the description of shopt under
SHELL BUILTIN COMMANDS below).
I never realized that before now. I guess it's since I can't think of a time when I've ever used aliases in a bash script...

In fact, I don't think I've ever used shopt before either, although I use disown every now and again...

NAME
lr_environment - Export Lire configuration in shell script form SYNOPSIS
eval `lr_environment` DESCRIPTION
The lr_environment command is used to import the Lire configuration in Lire shell scripts. All of Lire configuration variables will be written in a format that can be evaled by the shell. Shell scripts don't usually have to use that command, since it is done by the defaults file sourced by each command. The old names used by when the configuration was done in shell script are also exported by this script for backward compatibility. AUTHOR
